"He was glued to his computer 24/7," she said tearfully. "He was so afraid he was going to miss an opportunity to contribute a comment or start a discussion, that he just stopped eating." She added that Wanamaker's last words were "OK Picard, stick that in your pipe and smoke it..."

A true nerd always eats at his computer. I haven't eaten at the kitchen table in years.

I laughed and am in fact still laughing. I'm at a LAN and people are looking at me funny <:|. Oh btw I just ate some jax at my computer at this LAN but when I'm at home I try and eat at the computer it's better than eating at the table.

I think a true nerd would have a cupboard and fridge for food so that they would never leave the room or even have to get up.

how could you die of starvation. because you didnt wanna leave the forum for a few minutes to eat... to save your life. i think is bs i bet he died of some unknown cause so they blame lack of food.

i hope it was alienSS!!!!

Thats not geek.

Unless, you bought the stove off ebay and googled the recipe.
